"Bush administration officials knew that a Texas oil company with close ties to President Bush was planning to sign an oil deal with the regional Kurdistan government that ran counter to American policy and undercut Iraq’s central government, a Congressional committee has concluded."People can say what they want to about an American oil company with close ties to President Bush signing no bid contracts in occupied Iraq, but what we won't hear is what this really is, colonization.
Could any of us possibly imagine what would happen if Bill Clinton invaded a country and then had campaign donors get no bid contracts to plunder that country's natural resources?
A quick stroll down memory lane to find out what would have happened. An entire independent counsel was setup by the Republican Congress and given an unlimited budget with subpoena powers to investigate a land deal that went sour in 1982 between a close Clinton friend and donor. That independent counsel eventually led to Clinton's impeachment.
